Media Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain & Ground Zeroes

[Solidus]

I'm willing to accept minor inconsistencies done purely for cinematic flare, as Kojima often gives tip-of-the-hats to film directors. In the case of the stealth camo, it was simply a reference to the Predator film. That said, MGS 3 felt wholeheartedly, like a Cold War game; from the cold, utilitarian Soviet buildings, the dense jungles, and even the musical direction (eg. Snake Eater). It's a far cry from the more recent games, that were like alternate-reality, fan fictions of some sort. Personally, I'm much more inclined to believe that Peace Walker and MGS V are like non-canon entries in to the storyline.

MGS games always showed us technology that was waaaay ahead of its time, for example: it was ovbious that something like REX couldn't exist by the year 2005

But seriously who cares anymore? luckily I don't. Maybe our grandchildren could see something similar to REX... MAYBE... I think they won't but it will happen one day, maybe in the next century

Actually, DARPA has always been conceptualizing some pretty advanced technology. I'm sure Kojima took the news of it and extrapolated it by lengths. Let's face it, he's not exactly good at telling the future. MGS 4 was like a slight critique on Blackwater USA from the Bush Administration. PMCs have still not gained a global dominance like was predicted in that game - not even close .

Then what the hell was/is Blackwater doing in Ukraine?

it COULD happen, and there is no way for us civilians to know if we are close to that or not GW controls the confirmation bias everything in the news is a lie, the patriot's memes! the patriot's memes are everywhere

no, really

That about PMCs.. Those things take too much time to happen, we all will be Old Snakes by the times it happens IF it happens, we just can't know the truth about that sort of thing we would have to know too much of what is going on out there, right now there are too many half truths and convenient lies, especially about this topics

Its more or less the same for the Solid saga, it may feel worst in BB's saga because its the past, considering the events of MGS3... by the 80s we would have all that tech you see in the pics

Its fantasy based on reality like you said, many things that happen in MGS could actually happen one day



BTW Who repped me!?!?!?

thanks

Must be the Fox Die working its way into your blood stream.

Does that mean I get to grow a fancy ass 70's porn star stache?

@Solidus I was just kidding with you, and I was ESPECIALLY KIDDING ABOUT THAT SECOND PART! You know I'm just playing, right Big Brother? I love are government, and it has nothing, but hardworking honest members. HAIL OBAMA!

 

[GasparZizou]

Hail Hydra!

[Baneofdemon22]

Is the EZ cigar trademarked or is it just a joke, and like the EZ gun in MGS3?

Well, Blackwater changed their name after all the Congressional hearings, and bad publicity . They actually went through a few name changes over the years, and I don't even know what they're called anymore.

Aside from Kojima, I don't think that any director (especially those in film) has been very accurate in predicting the future. If Terminator 2 was correct, there should have been a robot apocalypse by now. But, the current advancements in AI, are not even close to achieving anything like Skynet. Just last week there was news that a computer bot program had FINALLY passed the Turing Test for linguistics .

I'd say that if MGS remained grounded in futuristic storylines, with its elements purely in Sci Fi, there would have been a lot more coherence to the actual canon. After all, the future is something that we can only ponder about, and there's no way of knowing about it, until we actually get there.

That's partly the reason for why I've grown to have so much respect for MG Rising. It's camp, and utterly silly in every conceivable way. But, it makes an honest attempt to follow in the tradition of the Solid Snake games, by progressing the storyline in an ever evolving timeline.

Mhmm preach brother.

Here's some hips for Henry...

 

[Henry Morgan*]

Solidus what are you doing?





I prefer this:

 

[GasparZizou]

Hnnngh, even better.

Tinkerbell gave me funny feelings when I was a kid, that Walt Disney was a kinky bastard.

 

[Solidus]

Solidus what are you doing?





I prefer this:

Fine, fine. How about dem Gekko hips?

 

[Solidus]

Hnnngh, even better.

She's very close to being one of those adult-themed animated women. Have you ever seen Heavy Metal or Cool World? .

 

[GasparZizou]

Cool World I haven't seen, it kinda reminds me of Who framed Roger Rabbit, which also stars an adult themed animated woman

 

[Henry Morgan*]

Fine, fine. How about dem Gekko hips?

I like where this is going.....



Yeah I love cows

Cool World I haven't seen, it kinda reminds me of Who framed Roger Rabbit, which also stars an adult themed animated woman

Thats the movie with the super hot Redhead right?


When it comes to adult themed cartoons I prefer anime those are hardcore, like Queen's Blade, not a movie but.. since we are on the topic
